Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "What you don't know about anger can make you angry!" Find out what you don't know about anger in this short, enjoyable book. Don't be a victim any longer. Anger has many faces: hostility, aggression, conflict, and domestic violence, to name a few. This book is for people affected by anger, whether their own or others'. It will introduce you to causes of anger that few understand. Over the years, we've learned how and when to be angry, but not all anger is due to learning. There are actually many biological causes of anger. In Temper, Temper, Dr. Dave Skaer, Ph.D. Psychology, explains how you can identify these causes, and provides insight on how to correct the resulting anger. He also shares many fascinating counseling cases, plus findings from the medical literature. Many people don't know or understand the impact their physical state has on their moods. In this book, you'll learn: --How your biology affects your anger --How to remedy the problem that makes you angry --How the biological and the psychological interact to throw fuel on the fire Dr. Skaer has a heart for helping those with anger problems because he experienced biologically induced anger in his own life. He didn't discover how biology affected his anger while getting his Ph.D. in psychology; instead, he learned it from his wife. After he experienced a few disturbing outbursts, she suggested a possible physiological problem-and she was right! He changed this one, simple thing, and his temper issue was resolved. As you might expect, his family was much happier. This experience motivated him to help others with their temper problems. Realizing there might be other biological causes of aggression and impatience, he began researching medical journals and applied this knowledge to his counseling practice. Clients would come in for psychological help but would receive a short education on the biology of anger instead. At first, many didn't believe the "cure," but these clients were pleasantly surprised as they corrected their anger problems. You, too, might find these causes unusual as you read this book, but Dr. Skaer knows that you'll appreciate the results. Being a calmer, less angry person will help improve your life and the lives of those around you. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Depression, anxiety, and other mental illnesses affect millions of people. Unfortunately, many suffer needlessly because mental health professionals have misdiagnosed the causes of these mental illnesses. In fact, your mental illness might be a nasty side effect of a medical problem. The idea isn't new, but few pursue it. Psychiatrists and therapists will generally assume your problem is a psychological one. Treatment is usually talk therapy (counseling) or medication to adjust your "chemical imbalance." After all, you sought help for a mental illness, so they might not check for a medical cause. And medical illnesses often affect mental state long before anyone would suspect a medical problem, so you need to know all you can about these medical illnesses which affect us mentally. Once you understand a medical issue is the culprit, you can seek the help of a medical doctor. Treat the medical problem, and the medical AND mental problems disappear. In Depression & Other Mental Illnesses caused by Medical Diseases, you'll find an easygoing, approachable, and even humorous read. Dr. Dave Skaer shares compelling case studies from his years of counseling and plenty of support from the medical literature. Dr. Skaer experienced severe depression following a bout with the flu back in the 1970s. Despite having a Ph.D. in psychology, he didn't know the flu could lead to depression. But a little research revealed that not only does the flu cause depression, it also causes other psychological problems. It opened his eyes to how important the physical state is to one's mental condition. A few weeks later, one of his counselees asked, "How many biological illnesses are there that cause mental issues?" The question motivated Dr. Skaer to search the medical literature. That's when he discovered other physical problems causing mental complications. Later, while working in a psychiatric hospital, he came across more medical issues that had resulted in depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and even schizophrenia. Once the doctors treated the medical problems, the psychological symptoms vanished, giving patients a new lease on life. This book will help you understand: --The many physical causes of mental illnesses --The symptoms of medical diseases to look for --How to speak to your doctor to get the help you need --How to conduct proper research to be more knowledgeable and aid your doctor in finding the correct diagnosis --How to say goodbye to the so-called mental problem and recover your self-esteem, good family times, and better attitude toward work and life. If you or a loved one has depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, or any other mental illness and typical treatment just isn't working, this book is for you.
